stuny Posted April 7, 2009 Share #2 Posted April 7, 2009 DES - Delightful complexity, light, contrast, depth and tonal range, Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Hiles Posted April 8, 2009 Share #3 Posted April 8, 2009 I think this is very good. Interesting, complex subject, beautifully managed tones and contrast. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

thompsonkirk Posted April 8, 2009 Share #5 Posted April 8, 2009 I hope my dissent will be read constructively: I believe this fine image deserves even better post-processing! I think the subject & capture are great, but I have trouble with the tones. IMO the highlights go 'over the top'. I'd like to see more of a classical 'Zone system' treatment, with more highlight detail - via Shadow/Highlight tool or Curve or Brightness/Contrast (or some of all 3). Just one person's view....

DES Posted April 8, 2009 Author Share #6 Posted April 8, 2009 Thank you all for your kind words.. . Kirk....I think if you come on this site it should be with a view to take on board all criticism as long as it is constructive, because it is here where we learn, I fully welcome your dissent and hope to improve as a result of the forums many different views. I have tried to show a different working of this image, although I am not sure if it is any better...or worse!! Thank you. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
louloumum Posted April 8, 2009 Share #7 Posted April 8, 2009 Advertisement (gone after registration) I agree with Kirk above, and I think you did a fine job in this 2nd round. A fine image ! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
thompsonkirk Posted April 9, 2009 Share #8 Posted April 9, 2009 And I agree with Marie-Louise! In particular, I think the roots at the base of the tree are much improved in the 'second edition': they look much more three-dimensional.
